Re: What Video game did you last play?

Yeah, it is amazingly gorgeous on the PC with the high res textures.. that is if you have the system that can do it. I have a top end system with a sort of good video card (HD5870) and I can run it on max settings, 1920x1080 reso, with 8xAA at about 40FPS.

There are a lot of old school RPG snobs who are whining about how it is an action game, it's still a great RPG, just don't expect it to be Baldur's Gate 2011. It is a lot different from the first Dragon age. There is no isometric/strategy camera view and all the talents and abilities are redone, better I think. I mean it's Bioware, you know it's awesome.

It also seems better balanced than the first Dragon Age. I ended up duoing Nightmare mode in Origins because it was so easy once I figured out how to use the right tactics. I had to gimp myself for a challenge. This one is alot tougher so far, I had trouble killing a boss guy in hard mode, which was cool.

Re: What Video game did you last play?

This question came up after I played Black Ops last night. Why do people play strategy type game types like CTF, Domination, Neutral bomb, or whatever and not play the game like it is supposed to be played?

Last night while playing CTF one of our teammates refused to go capture the enemy flag when it was two feet away from our base. All he had to do was get up, grab the flag and take a few steps and we tie the game up, but nooooooooo he just set there prone trying to snipe people who were trying to come return the flag. I was racing over after killing the guy who had our flag so we could return the enemies flag, but by the time I got over there time ran out and we lost.

I get finding a place that you can cover A and B in Domination and hanging out there. You are actually helping the team and getting your precious kills, but when you are sniping in an area where the other team has claimed that flag you are being useless to the team!

The MY Player mode is amazing! It has one glitch and that is when someone grounds to the first baseman, and you're the pitcher, you can't run over to help get the guy out. I'm sure they'll fix it though.

In the show in the RTTS mode I am half way though my 3rd year and was an all star. My only grip is my Cubs traded me to the Yankees . Now I have to wait 3+ years to become FA eligbly or however it works in baseball to go sign back with my Cubs.

Re: What Video game did you last play?

I hope I just barely scratched the surface..so far played about 3 hours...spent well over 60 hours in the first one...not bad so far...kinda got lost a bit in the begining with regards to the time table compared to the original but things have cleared up it seems...fun game...not really feeling the side characters though...they seem to be bi+chin' too much...

great graphics and fun gameplay although im not too happy with the camera during the battle scenes as you get attacked from left and right and aren't able to have a good sense like you did in the first one by zooming out...
